Will 'Yellowjackets'' Bonus Episode Feature The Big Cameo That Was Missing From Season 2?

Showtime’s hit horror-thriller "Yellowjackets" delivered a whopper of a Season 2 finale, what with Coach Ben’s meme-worthy attempt at mass murder and the death of a fan-favorite character, as well as the survivors’ latest trip down Cannibalism Lane. While it wasn’t ever quite clear why the second season was set for only nine chapters after the first year featured ten episodes, that mini-mystery was seemingly solved recently by co-creator Ashley Lyle, who confirmed the previously rumored existence of a bonus episode, which will air at some point before Season 3 arrives. So will that extra ep also answer this question: whatever happened to that cameo from Jason Ritter? For all that the final few "Yellowjackets" episodes gave viewers, strangely absent was the anticipated cameo from "Parenthood" vet Jason Ritter, whose wife Melanie Lynskey is obviously central to the show’s present-day storyline as Shauna. The appearance was revealed to be on the way before Season 2 premiered, so it’s one that fans have been waiting on for months now, hanging onto the lone details that Ritter and Lynskey won’t be sharing the screen together. Thus, once the finale wrapped up without prominently showcasing the actor in any specific ways, fans quickly started speculating about the existence of a tenth episode being the place where the cameo would happen.
